Suspiria (1977) dir. Dario Argento
Dario Argento to me is the master of color, vibes, and atmosphere, and you can feel how much Bava influenced him. This is the scene that started Scent Dialekt. When I saw Suzy and her roommate Sara swimming in the pool, I could smell it all. The pool stone, the pool water, the shampoo in their hair. And you are seeing it from the POV of one of the witches, watching from above, straining to hear what they are saying. I thought, one day I have to make a perfume of this scene! I did it back in 2016, and this is what started it all. The scenery, the color, the color grading alone is just beautiful to watch. Sigh.
Notes: Apple shampoo. Cold tile. Mineralized water. Paranoia. Spray at 58:36 minutes.
Ingredients: Alcohol Denat., Parfum (Fragrance), Aqua (Water), Coumarin, Eugenol, Citronellol, Geraniol, Linalool, Limonene, Benzyl Benzoate.
Caution: Flammable. Avoid contact with eyes. For external use only.
